Chapter 55: The ...... Before the Storm

Robbie almost jumped on the spot: "Brother Richard, do you have a Monaka leech?"

It is not for nothing that the bed crossbow is widely used as a fortification ordnance, and it is indeed superior in defensive combat. If a few Manaka leeches were to bring the two bed crossbows back into use, it would definitely greatly reduce the pressure on the defense, and I don't know how many warriors' lives would be saved!

He knew he wasn't a good military leader, but he was eager to do something for the clan that gave birth to him and raised him.

The lord and he looked at him and laughed together, and the tacit understanding surged in silence: "No. ”

Robbie is a peaceful-tempered dwarf, and this peaceful-tempered dwarf is now stinging all over the ground for a brick.

"But my centaur rangers have a spare bowstring for a longbow. Richard's words made the other party give up all impulses.

The longbow dwarves of centaurs have seen with impressive arm spans, and they are made of nearly two-bladed ox tendons, which are far better than ordinary bowstrings.

In fact, no matter how high-quality the bowstring is, it is only a bowstring, even if a few are twisted into a single strand for the bed crossbow, it is still reluctant, and the attrition rate will be frighteningly fast, but at least it is much stronger than the goat tendon used by the dwarves before.

"I'm going to prepare the gold coins!" Robbie didn't hesitate at all, turned and ran down the arrow tower.

Dwarves live in a primitive environment of bartering all year round, and have a very weak concept of money. Or that at this time, there is still a chance to solve the problem with money, which is already the greatest luck in itself.

They were quick to pay for it, and a whole box of gold coins was quickly carried into the Alpine Fort garrison by the two dwarves, and then turned into the dinar of the system at an even faster rate.

The longbows were all bought from the system shop, so how could there be any spare bowstrings, and the centaurs would replace them with new bows if they lost their strings during training.

Richard was planning to buy a finished longbow from the system shop and disassemble the strings.

To tell the truth, it is a little extravagant, a longbow is a few dozen gold coins, Richard waved his hand is forty, and a thousand gold coins suddenly bottomed out. After all, there are no bed crossbows in the system shop to sell directly, which is also a stopgap measure.

The people of Alpine Fort had long guessed that their lord might have a piece of spatial equipment in his hand, and they were not surprised that the gold coins disappeared out of thin air and the longbow appeared out of thin air. Hurt led the bowstrings to be removed one by one and given to Robbie, and the problem of the bed crossbow was temporarily solved.

Am I not related to gold?, Lord Lord, suddenly realized a very serious question. He has had a large amount of gold in his account several times in a row recently, but each time he has gone to rest before he has time to cover his heat.

"If there is no fate, there is no fate, Lao Tzu is fearless. Richard lay down on the bed, and the dwarves brought breakfast. Although he has been a nobleman for a long time, he is a nobleman who is more grassroots, and it is the first time that he has experienced the feeling of stretching out his hand when he comes to dinner.

"Cool. ”

Before he could eat a few bites, Richard suddenly received Nehru's application to join the team in the system, he paused for a moment, and then couldn't help but laugh.

Nehru, the old boy, has been tossed and turned between tribes for half his life, and the typical old oilman does not stick to his hands.

Since coming to Gaoshan Fort, when the wind is calm, he is looking forward to being promoted and making a fortune, and he is greedy for life and afraid of death as soon as there is a storm. Loyalty has never reached the minimum standard of systematic judgment, and if it weren't for the fact that he was still a spellcaster, the lord would have taught him to know what a dictatorial iron fist was.

This kind of old fritter has been beaten through wind and rain in the heart, and it is wrapped in a thick shell for protection, and it is difficult to touch it even if you punch and kick it.

The fact that such a huge change has taken place now undoubtedly shows that the rhetoric has greatly stimulated him, and the old heart that has gone through vicissitudes has become active again. After learning from the pain, the admiration for the lord finally gushed out.

Let you be cunning like a ghost, let you see through the red dust, how can you escape from the palm of this lord's hand. Richard triumphantly was about to confirm that Nehru's application for membership flashed a few times, and then disappeared again.

The old boy's heat only lasted for a few breaths, and he regretted it!

“......”

"Gunther!" the lord's angry shouts rang out in the room, "Tell Nehru that he has nothing to eat today!

............

Dwarves have always been known for their generosity towards their true friends, and the mountain castle that rushed to help them in times of crisis was so true that they couldn't be true friends, so it was only natural that they received the full support of this group of landowners.

Their weapons fit well, but what they lacked was armor. For the dwarves in the arms business, this need was not a problem at all.

The tribe's arsenal contains ready-made armor pieces and chain mail that have been accumulated in the past, and they are a good armor if they are simply strung together.

The dwarves mobilized all the women and children to work collectively, and it was completed in just one night. The Alpine Fort Guard can be described as a shotgun change, and all the members of the guard put on a double layer of armor with a collection of chain mail on the outside and inside the armor, and they had a full house as soon as they appeared, and finally they no longer had to worry about being recognized as wilderness outcasts by outsiders.

The turtles in Alpine Fort were all beaming, but the dwarven blacksmiths still felt that they couldn't leave. Pulling Richard vigorously, he said that the use of armor is really just a temporary transition, and he will tailor the best plate armor for each of them in the future.

If calculated according to the market price, these things are definitely a lot of money, and he can't afford to buy them even if he kills the lord.

The sincerity and enthusiasm of the dwarves made Richard, who was ready to fight the defense of the tribe into a meat grinder, a little embarrassed.

He had intended to coax the dwarves to keep the war going as much as possible, even with the stupidest tactics than not at all. So Richard never questioned Sendak's arrangement, what he was afraid of was that he would lose the fighting spirit of the dwarves and leave directly.

But if you really have to carefully test the tactics of the school, any rookie commander in Pompeii can see that there is actually a smarter way to play this battle.

"That...... It would be much easier for us to withdraw and give this iron ore to the wilderness people, and then come back to clean it up when they beat each other's brains. "Every time Richard met Sendak, he behaved like a traditional dwarf – drinking, eating meat, and wielding a hammer.

But this time was an exception, he and several high-ranking people of the same clan had a tall round iron pot for boiling soup, as if they were preparing to change careers to become cooks en masse.

After Richard finished speaking, several dwarves kept looking at each other, blinking, and no one spoke for a long time.

It was Sendak who was quick to respond: "Lord Richard has a point, but we have to have a meeting to study it." ”

They soon hurried away together, leaving the lord himself in place, with a look of disbelief, "I...... Got beaten up by the dwarves?"
